Abstract
Although Bipartite Patella is usually asymptomatic, it may become symptomatic after repeated traumas. The treatment of avulsed and painful bipartite patella consists conservative treatments including, rest and physiotherapy but surgical treatment can be required in inconclusive cases. Surgical treatment consists, open or arthroscopic excision of the painful fragment and release of the lateral retinaculum. In this case report, we present 19-yearold male patient who underwent arthroscopic resection of his type III avulsioned bipartite patella. While we were performing the arthroscopic surgery for the treatment, we minimized the problems related to open surgery.
